Ingredients

– Watermelon

– 1 Lemon

– Sugar

– Glass or Jar

– Blender

Step One

Cut your watermelon into chucks or slices and put them in the freezer overnight. This is the best way to avoid using ice cubes, and it also preserves all the sweetness (which will help you use a lot less sugar!)

Step Two

Put your frozen pieces of watermelon into the blender and add a bit of lemon and a teaspoon of sugar. BLEND and taste. Test to see if you want to add more lemon or sugar as you go. It all depends on how sweet your watermelon is and how sweet you want it to be.

Step Three

Pour your granita into glasses, and add a couple of mint leaves on top for presentation. Serve with spoons to make it super easy to eat. Grab your other snacks and you’re set!
